[color=royalblue]All 2024 models of cars are running on Petrol or electric

How come they are boycotting the safe CNG for Petrol? Abi Toyota and Ford no sabi anything?

It is only Asain and third world countries that are on this CNG stuff.

Hopefully, this conversion is not about to lead people like a lamb led to be slaughtered[/color]

We = Nigerians

1. Does it make sense that Nigerians abandon their petrol cars to start buying electric cars?

2. Do we have money to buy electric cars?

3. Can Nigerians convert to CNG? Yes

4. Do we have enough gas? Yes!

The only but is that the conversion kit is too expensive. I expect that the FG should subsidize it for over 1 or 2 years so people can make the necessary switch. That's if there's no subsidy on CNG though.

northbird:
Are you sure, because I met a man whose friend lost 2 buses and a driver to that inferno.and both buses were converted to cng.

The filling station fire was started by a truck carrying cooking gas. If petrol cars were close to the burning truck won't they get burnt too?

northbird:
Really, I'm sure you heard of the sad incident at a fuel station close to Alausa.

Gazzuzz (RIP) analyzed it here:
https://www.nairaland.com/7934491/cng-cars-safer-than-petrol

Also that was cooking gas not CNG

pope191:
We were once using dpk, still will switch to cooking gas. Then, cooking gas was seen as a very dangerous matter. Today, you barely see anyone that uses dpk.

About taking huge chuck of the trunk? any load that can’t fit into the back sit, the rider should find alternative. Another trip will come, the main goal for me is to make profit.

I agree with you on cost going up, because political instability is one major issue in this country. Regardless, we still have to do what we have to do.

I have even read about people protesting against the discover of electricity back then lol

emadamysy:
At least Elon Musk built his from the scratch no biggie.
Can you say the same for this CNG theory.

I don't get you.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]The scarcity of stations is a huge, very huge turn off

From CMS to Badagry, no station.

What if your car has a high combustion, or your gas is leaking? You'll lose cylinder and start carrying to to go and buy gas?

The scarcity of stations is why transporters won't touch it yet.[/color]

Current conversion doesn't outrightly rule out the use of petrol. 😉

Don't Gabrinchi me na

My question has made you to have a rethink of your stance?

Lmao. I only state the obvious but people here don't like the truth. Nobody can gag me from supporting who I want. QED

Snrman1:
olodo if them ask all of us we go say we sabi fvck but shey na all of us fit go same duration? I didn't vote obi I voted atiku but I can tell u only a wicked leader that doesn't care about his people that will remove subsidy on the 1st day without even having ministers. The subsidy self he was still paying it until recently I swear I dont even care who u voted for but if the policies aint right u should complain if not u b zombie thats how the North didn't complain during buhari time. All in all we go still meet for filling station

Yes Peter Obi and Tinubu are wicked leaders. Raise am bro. Atiku never mentioned day 1. You have a point

northbird:
This is a very valid point you raised. I have never seen a CNG factory fitted toyota before.

Follow trends, the world is moving to green energy. That's why Elon Musk tagged his electric vehicles (cars for the future).

Nigeria has not resolved electricity problem, also electric cars are expensive. We have gas in abundance which will equally reduce the CO2 we produce. It's a good option for a country like Nigeria.

Are you also aware that CNG is safer than petrol?

Gentlelife50:
Do you honestly think your baba will do that?

What will he gain from lying about it? If he fails, it's a dent on his government and the people who believe in him will turn against him.

He's getting enough money (for the country) from moving away from petrol to green energy. What's the point in moving us from petrol to gas if it won't be cheaper forever?

We just need to know what we're getting ourselves into.

northbird:
The cost for cng conversion is too steep. Moreover ,it takes a huge chunk of your trunk space. As a ehailing person, it puts you at a big disadvantage.Most airport riders usually have luggage.

As long as the "God is good, Ekeson, young shall grow, Agofure ,Peace n co" have not switched.
I wouldn't waste my time.

The question nobody has answered is" if you switch and few weeks later, cost of cng goes up ,
what will you do?.

As long as you can considerably recover your pms costs in ehailing, pms is still the preferred choice.

The government has to be transparent on the bolded. They need to tell us if there's subsidy on CNG now. Not that in future, they will do us the kerosene and cooking gas treatment.

Gentlelife50:
Okay list don drop sharp sharp?
That tinubu boy no dey the list?

There's definitely a campaign against me. Who's more active than me on this thread. Na dis money I wan use chop this night

These people go insúlt me say I dey hungry yet dem dey skip me for giveaway

pope191:
Boss make we no do roughly like this nah action time.

I use full tank for 2 days, if I do full day. That’s when fuel was 568 and 29k will fill the tank.

Today, 44k will fill my tank and if I work for 5 days that’s 110k in a week, 440k in a month. Wetin come remain? Make balablu just take it all.

The best way is to go CNG like this

They may insùlt you in public but they agree with you in private.

Itsrm:
Donbrowser when he sees the list

Una dey see pearl laidis oh. Ordinary giveaway, e add padi padi. Na so life be?

dav1002:
The reason why I think any protest in a bid to reduce pms pump price will be futile is

If Lagos spearheads the protest, other states go tell you they have been buying fuel for more than 900 naira for a long time so make all man rest.

The thought of even going to queue is tiring and I need to work
Kai

Don you really browse Nigerians for this Una regime oh

I am not in support of the scarcity for whatever reason but cheap fuel? Those days are gone!

Pearl1910:
On the subsidy from IFSHR. He has done an initial list. I will include a few more people. Very active and committed people on this thread only. Whether u are Ant, Hoodlum or Lazy category 😃 Will extend to weekend so I can search through and bring out more names and for people to see it and drop their stuff.

NB: Can we do 10k or 15k each so more people can be accommodated?

Omo, if u see Pearl and Gabrinchi for the final list I no wan hear pim o

How can you exclude me from the list? Which kind beef be this?

tojahh:
They can't hijack it. They have a keyword and it's not mentioned here

We know how we position for here. If Pearl isn't available... I am always available!

Hope we sha won't see another gabrinchi saga 🤔

Make I drop my aza asap

Pearl1910:
Well am not a bad person so make I take number 2

Olodo. He no sabi when to use "I'm" or "am"

IFSHR:
Keep swimming in your hypocrisy.. even stark illiterate can see the handwriting on the wall.. u wey sabi meaning of subsidy I guess you are buying it cheap.. Shebi na person wey even get car go sabi that one.. just go back to your TikTok to Dey shout tap tap

There you go again

Gentlelife50:
This guy is dumber than I thought, kaii.
Very shallow human beings, respect yourself small.
If you keep quite small your stupidity won't be too obvious, if you are not stupid you should know Jonathan had plans to remove subsidy bit by bit and was doing it.
He initiated the SURE-P programs to reinvest money saved from the gradual subsidy removals, take note there a was a program in place so the impact won't be felt.
You and your likes keep shouting all the candidates said they will remove subsidy as if they would have done it the way your small god did on the very first day he was sweearrd for in a very casual and careless manner he did.
It's such a comfort knowing everybody wil be feeling the impact, if you like keep lying to yourself.

it's like this one has not seen the video of Peter Obi saying he will remove subsidy first day in office

pope191:
Swears. I’ve been trying to avoid the drama, but disrespecting him to score a point truly make me want to question why waste energy on him.

Do his likes think it’s just about drivers? Yesterday, I had a fuel that won’t take me beyond 35k for sure. Stuck inbetween parking the car or raise 41k for full tank. I managed to squeeze 63k out of the fuel. Apparently, I can get full tank now and still keep some change, but what will happen to workers that have to pay extra amount of money to work? Will the 70k minimum wage be enough to cushion all these? What happens if naira keeps getting weaker, just as it did yesterday? We keep shifting pump price or hope on Dangote, when we can’t even ascertain the quantity of crude oil he will be getting with China eyes on our crude. Foodstuffs are about to go up. People won’t be able to afford basic needs again(not like they can anyway) and in turn this will affect everyone, including drivers and companies which will force them to shut down.

This dude thinks it’s about sounding politically correct and being insensitive. Reality struck, he knows himself better and his living condition. Needless dragging anything with a soul at his lowest ebb, such will cling on anything just to grasp some breath of if it doesn’t work for me, let it be so for everybody. Some people find relief in misfortunes.

Na you and others here no wan accept reality.

Tinubu... I will remove subsidy
Atiku.... I will remove subsidy
Obi.... I will remove subsidy

We all agreed with votes but not ready to face reality.
Did I support scarcity? Hell No!

But you can't be using increase in fuel price as a yardstick for failure of this government, I won't accept it.

What will happen to fuel price if subsidy is removed? It will go lower?

Let's look at other areas where Tinubu has failed.

1. He was quick to dabble into exchange rate, I think he should have taken it one at a time.

2. He's slow on the CNG thing. LASG should lead by example, 70% of BRT Buses should be running on CNG or electric so as to force down the price of transport

3. The government should properly digitalize the naira like USDT, input more players in p2p instead of banning crypto currency

I can go on and on but then...

[color=royalblue]This is an Uber thread. It is for addressing ehailing issues.

Go to your UK Tiktok WhatsApp group and drop your unrelated comments there.

This thread is not for UK Tiktok skills[/color]

Never!

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Good.

Stick to it, and leave this business for those involved.

When we want tips on Market to Market management, we wil call you.[/color]

Never!

izzou:
[color=royalblue]He listed the pros and cons of the conversion; two being little trunk space and non availability of fueling stations.

If you were half as smart as i assumed, you would know it is a big disadvantage for ehailing.

Sit this one out, so you don't sound more stupid.

When we want tips to open UK Tiktok account we will call you.[/color]

Na by force to drive? Is your dẹ́stiny tied to driving Uber?

If you had voted Peter Obi and he removed subsidy on 1st day like he promised, will you be here lamenting?

izzou:


[color=royalblue]I just realised the guy is a joke.

I respect political differences, but trying to talk down on a someone involved in a legitimate hustle is below the belt

Someone that has no tangible focus currently

Community management and Product management no pay again. Na UK Tiktok be the goal.

And he has the voice to tell someone to "Go hard or go home"

[/color]

You still never hear the latest. I'm currently learning Market to Market Management with 3mtt

emadamysy:
How can you be foolish, clueless &dumb to still find a voice to defend this madness?

Lets leave who we voted or did not vote, let’s talk about the guy you voted, why are you still defending this madness he’s producing every 3 days?

What’s the color of your problem?

Color red

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Because you know nothing, you open your mouth, speak and confirm to everyone how ignorant you are.

You don't know anything about cars or its profitability. Instead of facing Tiktok, you jump into a discourse and start to cap.

Face TikTok my brother, leave this hustle for people wey dey do am.[/color]

So Gazzuzz (RIP) that was asking you to convert your car to CNG is also your enemy and a novice?

izzou:
[color=royalblue]A graduate that doesn't know that converting a car to using CNG is disadvantageous, because the cylinder eats up your trunk space; a car for ehailing for that matter

There's a reason why buses and trucks are the potential targets

A graduate that doesn't know we have a limited number of CNG stations in Lagos. The last time i checked, we only have two on Lagos/Ibadan expressway.

TikTok Graduate[/color]

A graduate that voted for Peter Obi should know that he will remove subsidy on day 1 and his Uber business will be affected if he doesn't switch to hybrid car or CNG

Cry all you can

Advision:
Your biggest problem is that you lack character. Even if you have talent, without character you can't go far in life.

While preaching all these, you are looking for route to japa to poland on visitor's visa.

Lmao

It's not rocket science to know Hundeyin was working for or with PIDOM.

Gazzuzz (RIP) was here from time to time telling folks here about the need to switch to CNG because he understands what subsisdy removal means but you will see graduates here who equally voted for candidates that have same ideology of subsidy removal like my candidate wake up daily to curse the president and his supporters as if curses will put food on their table

Last last, it's either you go hard or go home!
